OPTIBRIDGE
Bridging agent selection software
Overview
Whether the fluid is a kill pill, a reservoir drill-in fluid, a system designed for lost circulation, or one for perforation sealing, your fluid system must be precisely formulated with the right bridging agent to block invasion and prevent formation damage. That’s where OPTIBRIDGE™ bridging agent selection software comes in. It enables you to design fluid systems that help block invasion and prevent formation damage.
Using formation data and information about potential materials, OPTIBRIDGE software calculates the best fit or mixture of bridging particles to pack your formation effectively. It determines the ideal particle size distribution for the bridging material, with blends that form a tighter and less invasive filtercake to seal pores, fractures, or completion screens.
Features
Accurately matches local bridging agents with formation characteristics.
Uses actual formation and bridging agent information for an optimal filtercake.
OPTIBRIDGE software is the first step in nondamaging fluid system design.
